I've never been impressed with Wit's End as an item. I feel like the majority of the magic damage comes in the form of some kind of combo nuke at the start of the fight. The building up of MR with on-hit procs just doesn't have synergy with that, I feel like. I've never really bothered to build offensive items on Shen, either, except made the odd Abyssal Scepter or Ryali's. Shen already has one of the best disables in the game on a low cooldown; because of that, there's really no reason in trying to get people to attack you, if you're going to sacrifice much-needed survivability to do it . I feel to draw fire off of your carries as Shen, it's much more efficient to take early ranks in Shadow Dash (especially with it's CD nerf) and to build a Kindleheart for the CDR. A good Shadow Dash is already enough of an engagement tool. 2 Shadow Dashes, each on two~three people can, no, almost certainly will result in a complete rout.

I definitely agree with the HoG on Jungle Shen. He's just a freakin' slow clear that it's needed for to fund a healthy stream of wards in game.

I've never understood AD on Shen. It doesn't scale with any of his kit, and he's not going to get any more than 10 autoattacks in any given fight (which by the way, I feel is time better spent repositioning for a second Shadow Dash, and in general getting in the enemy's way.) Almost every other stat helps him out tremendously, in both offense and defense. AS helps him proc that Ki Strike way more often, and Health makes it hit harder (while providing survivability). AP makes his Vorpal Blade into a small nuke, and CDR lets you spam it more often, while helping the rest of your kit, letting you disable more people and letting you ult more often. Movement Speed, even, lets you catch up to mofo when cleaning up, and lock them down with your Taunt, or reposition more swiftly in a fight.

With so many other useful stats,that help Shen out in so many other areas, I just don't see why people would sink their money into AD.

Was really disappointed in my team last game, so many mistakes. We also tried Shyvana Orianna despite the Jungler and I never playing with each other besides the other Tourney games, and he was never in position for my ball to be effective... I felt I performed at (almost) the top of my game, besides the first game where I seemed to get hit by bindings more than I usually do, which is never. =/ Finished in the top 16.

We basically had all the lanes pushed, then just grouped up mid and overtook them. Probably could have finished it earlier but we recalled to buy items when we really didn't need to. Then half of us died at the fountain turret just for lolz and I had to finish the Nexus off by myself haha.

looks like they had a fair bit of AFKs themselves mate. Amumu definately, and it looks like Anivia as well.

well it does say amumu left so not quite with no afks, sub20s are almost never seen with no afks/freepushes from the losing side... Fastest game I ever had was 10:50 (lolrecorder ty for time lol.), they did have one afker that game ever since the 4th minute though, so again I guess you can't call it 100% "legit".

Come to think of it, what the heck is with their team? Morgana and Anivia on the same team? Amumu in lane and Twitch jungle? Amumu + Anivia bot? What the heck is going on with that team lol? Not too sure about Merc Treads on Morgana when she already has a 100% CC reduction on anyone she wants.

You realize im not serious, right?The new guy in support at riot said they may give name changes under certain circumstances on Christmas. I'll definitely make use of that if its true. I made this account last november and I didn't think I'd like the game.
